Ontario supervised consumption site worker pleads guilty to accessory in shooting [Video]

A worker at the Toronto supervised consumption site near where a mother was killed by a stray bullet in the summer of 2023 has pleaded guilty to being an accessory to the shooting after she helped to shelter one of the accused and became involved in a romantic relationship with him.

That summer, Karolina Huebner-Makurat was walking in the Leslieville area beside the South Riverdale Health Centre — where a supervised consumption site was housed — when she was struck by a bullet and killed after a fight near a supervised consumption site in the area between two alleged drug dealers.

In the weeks after the shooting, 23-year-old Khalila Mohammed, who worked at the supervised consumption site where the shooting took place, was charged with attempting to obstruct justice and being an accessory to the shooting, which took place on July 7.

On Wednesday, Mohammed pleaded guilty to being an accessory — with the charge of obstruction expected to be withdrawn.
